I have been slowly acquiring the parts for a 40B. I've got the skimmer, heater, powerheads, etc.
I also got this Eshopps 800 I think it is. They discontinued them right after I bought it. It has a smokey colored u-tube and extremely vague instructions on how to get the siphon started. Something involving sticking another plastic hose (not included) halfway into the u-tube. What? What sized hose?
The tank is aqueon of course. So I'll have to buy a different tank if I want a drilled one. I've already built a 20 gallon sump.
If I can make the overflow work I'd rather do that than shop around for a different 40B. Can you get them pre drilled?
